WHAT DOES PALATALISE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Palatalization

In linguistics, palatalization /ˌpælətəlaɪˈzeɪʃən/ or palatization may refer to two different processes by which a sound, usually a consonant, comes to be produced with the tongue in a position in the mouth near the palate. In describing the phonetics of an existing language, a palatalized consonant is one pronounced with a palatal secondary articulation. This means that the consonant is pronounced as if followed very closely by the sound . For example, in the Polish word kiedy, the letters ki represent a palatalized, indicated in IPA notation as, with a superscript "j". This sound is similar to the combination of "k" and "y" in English "thank you". The other meaning of palatalization is encountered in historical linguistics, and refers to a sound change in which a consonant's place of articulation becomes closer to the palatal position. This change is often triggered by a following sound or a front vowel. For example, in Italian, before the front vowels e and i, the letter c, has come to be pronounced as the palato-alveolar consonant, like English "ch".
